Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Latter-Day Saints' Millennial Star, Vol. 71: February 25, 1909 After returning home, and having by diligent labor acquired sufficient means to enable them to fulfill another mission, many of the faithful sons of Zion have done as they did before - laid their all upon the altar and sallied forth to labor for another season in the vineyard of the Lord. Talk about heroes! These men are heroes in the fullest sense of the term. They are the Lord's heroes, and the day will come when they will be crowned and made kings and priests unto God, and shall reign with Him in glory upon the earth. And what do these men look forward to when their earthly missions are ended? To a long period of rest? To sit down in ease and comfort to await the resurrection day, then to receive a crown and a harp and spend eternity singing hymns and psalms and spiritual songs? 0, dear no! They expect when they depart this life to labor, even more diligently if possible, for the salvation of mankind; they expect to go as did the Master, and preach the gospel to those who did not receive it while they were in the flesh. What a glorious mission - saviors of men! Who could desire a greater? This is the work in which these ministers of the Lord will be engaged, and they shall continue in it till the time shall come that was spoken of by the Messiah, when every knee shall bow, and evey tongue confess that Jesus is the Christ, to the glory of God the Father.
